Googlywoogly Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 (edited) Is the PRS better than a Gibson in your opinion? Or not really fair to compare?I have been pondering a humbucking rig, and am fickle where PRS VS Gibson is concerned...

JDaveG Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 This ones Gibson-ish. Most of them have their own thing going on. I much prefer mine to a Gibson. I love a good Les Paul or SG too, but there is something about that particular PRS that's magic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Googlywoogly Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 That is one thing I'll never be able to do. Sing and play at same time. I'd be passing out from lack of oxygen. Easy to forget to breath when you are just playing with no singing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I have to do on the guitar, the less I'm capable of doing on vocals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googlywoogly Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 That was some way above average noodling right there. Thanks for sharing, I' ve never heard that version before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googlywoogly Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 The more I try to learn the more I realize the secret is how to make the strings you don't want to vibrate remain still. The more control you impose on the strings you don't want to play the better you sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more control you impose on the strings you don't want to play the better you sound.Yeah, I'm still not great at that. My biggest problem, though, is keeping proper time, especially on slower parts. I want to rush them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goal Line D Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Ok I have to ask since it appears the "image" thing around here isn't operating the same way as it used to.How does one post a pic in here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal Line D Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 1962 Fender Strat Reissue American (modified with a Seymore Duncan humbucker on bridge). I know that's not kosher for Fender purists but I was 17 at the time and didn't have the money for a Les Paul or SG etc and wanted that humbucker sound.Martin D-17 Mahogany acoustic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Googlywoogly Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 I've heard those things have monster U-shaped necks. How does it sound?I have been more than happy with it. It has a snarl to it. Was pleasantly surprised in the quality for a instrument made in Mexico. I highly recommend trying one out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
